N-word? I’ve never posted that. And why are you posting irrelevant shit?
Modern pickups have grown in leaps and bounds as far as capacity. My F-150 has a carrying capacity of 1800 lb in the bed and an old F-150 would get snapped in half. It’s also a hybrid and I regularly get over 25 mpg versus pickup trucks with v8s or V6 is getting 16 or 18.
Wow. Look, don’t wanna rain on anyone’s parade because I love hybrids, but I would still not buy a truck with one if that’s all the improvement it provided. You know how expensive those batteries are to replace?
So… It can carry 10 people? Isn’t that only marginally more than a minivan? What the fuck were they making the old F-150s with that they were worse than a minivan?
It’s literally in the terminology. Half ton pick up truck half ton load capacity. They just keep making the metal better. the frame stronger. Additionally I am able to tow over ten thousand pounds. You can’t do that with a minivan. You also can’t fit most motorcycles inside of a minivan. And most lawn and garden tasks tend to be pretty dirty. And i’d rather not clean out the carpets.
@HuddaBudda@const_void@Tb0n3 I know not much about pickups, but “jack of all trades master of none, often-times better than master of one.”
however, I don’t see how a normal car is any worse 99% of the time. It’s already a jack of more trades because it has more room inside. Maybe someone who hauls a lot of big loads could use a pickup.
Versatile in the sense that they do everything in a subpar way. Except if you have something from 1990s, then you should be fine for carrying power and even horsepower. Modern trucks are an engineering joke meant to exploit loopholes.
Also why the hell did you say the N-word!?

It’s a 1.4kwh battery so it’s not all that big.
